@SouthernMann said in All Blacks squad - The Rugby Championship:

SENZ radio said the PR team at NZR refused to let media live stream the press conference. This is just really dumb media relations. The organisation is looking completely incompetent.

Kreminology.

so like Cane being dumped, the news of our assistants being given the ol' heave-ho shite too.

I can see a record score against us in one of the SA tests, maybe a 50+ score will wake these fluffybunnies up?

Do they actually realise the level of bubble that they operate in?

So that dynamic will be great with the senior players reviews being leaked.

Either Schmidt selected the same dud selections, or he was outvoted by Foster and Plumtree....

and he isn't traveling to SA. So there's no real change whatsoever.

@mariner4life Fozzie was concerned about appearing bias to his old team and thought, too many Chiefs.

I'd just like to thank the NZR over this week for restoring faith in the coaching, selection, contracts, board, exec, media, oh, and the players. So refreshing that you've been clear and transparent, to boot.

What a very strange week in the life of NZ rugby...

NZRU should be thankful forever that the NZ Warriors are an even bigger dumpster fire.

They are far too arrogant to care.

Frizzel et tuipolotou. Yip that’ll fix it.

The most disappointing aspect of this.

At least when it goes tits up in SA and versus Oz, maybe Argentina, there will be no shifting of blame. Same group, same shit, give them the heave. If they stick with them, I can save money by not going to games or watching, as I know there's no point

No excuse about lack of time now either, they better be sounding out replacements.

I don’t know all the ins and outs of SENZ and NZRU, but do they always live stream every team announcement?

If not, then it’s hard to see that this isn’t just more games to add to the narrative building.

And that concludes Ian Foster's press conference.

On the defensive, adamant he's the right person to talk the team forward, but fails to address what changes will actually be coming in the wake of the series defeat to Ireland after naming a near identical squad

Lol

They're normally live streamed, most interviews are. It's the squad announcement!

I think it is sometimes do and sometimes don't.

I feared we wouldn't see this one because of the risk it could turn into a shit show.
